Well, aren't you a shrewd tax expert! You've got it right, my friend. Riley and Layla will each pay personal income tax on the portion of earnings that is theirs. So, they'll simply have to worry about their own slices of the partnership's pie, not the whole shebang. Time to pop open a bottle of bubbly and celebrate your tax knowledge! 🍾

Your answer is correct. Riley and Layla will each pay personal income tax on the portion of earnings that is theirs. In a partnership, the earnings are typically allocated to the partners based on the agreed upon percentage or ratio. In this case, 80% of the earnings go to Riley and 20% go to Layla. Each partner is responsible for paying personal income tax on their respective share of the partnership's earnings. The partnership itself does not pay taxes on the earnings, but rather, the tax liability passes through to the individual partners.
